Matt - I have seen both issues - a loose gas cap or a faulty DMTL pump. To be safe check the seals on your gas tank cap as well to make sure that it isn't broken, causing a poor seal when you tighten the cap. Let's hope your issue is not a faulty DMTL pump.

Here are great descriptions of the codes you received:

P1434 MINI FC (0x2736) - Detection Module for Tank Leakage [DMTL] - Tank Leakage
P1434 MINI FC (0x3220) - DMTL, System Fault - Abort Due to Current Fluctuations during Reference Measurement

Quote:
That fault code refers to the fuel tank evaporative control system, which includes the carbon canister, plumbing for condensing fuel vapors, the purge solenoid valve, and the leak detection unit [DMTL] which pressurizes the fuel tank and evaporative system to monitor system leaks. The DMTL is mounted directly to the activated carbon canister, which is located underneath the vehicle.
Report back if your issue presents itself again.
